The beflattered team, all in their 40s, 50s and 60s have tried loads of great products available in the market place. Read our take on products to deal with wrinkles.
We believe that effective skincare is key to looking great and staying young.
Our first port of call is to keep up a good skin cell turnover. To remove the dead and dull cells from the top of your skin and reveal radiant new ones.
Our favourite product to help with fine lines is . This product gives you the professional results of a non invasive chemical peel at home! It uses the same ingredients as professional peels used by cosmetic surgeons, but at a gentler concentration for gradual skin renewal. This unique 12-week program will gently and effectively slough away dead, dull skin to reveal fresh, bright, younger looking skin.
Resurfacing the skin through topical creams also helps to iron out fine lines and we think we’ve found some pretty good ones.
SKIN.NY from America have two great products that in essence do the same one is more gentle. For fine lines we like it contains QAL-100™ - uniquely this contains three highly active ingredients, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Co-Enzyme Q10 and Acetyl l Carnitine. Together these work synergistically against the effects of ageing helping to make wrinkles less noticeable. This was also the first ingredient anti-ageing complex to be written about in the British Journal of Dermatologists. A real ground breaker claiming to contain molecules that are small enough to pass through to the dermis the skin's deepest layer. It is only at the dermis that you can truly alter the skin and affect real change.
But if the high Tech approach to skin care is not for you we like the natural aromatherapy approach from This Works. Using the finest Essential Oils and Nutrients to balance and hydrate the skin. and work together to tighten, hydrate and brighten the skin adding instant radiance and a powerful youthful affect. Not to mention the intoxicating aromas that one of our users described as reminding her of that old TV gravy ad - every time she used it she just want to say “ahhhhhhhhhhhhh” .
If you prefer an organic product we like . The key to the effectiveness of Organic Apoteke is the way the active ingredients are delivered to where they are needed in the skin. This is via multiple micro-emulsion technology.
Organic Apoteke’s unique active complexes, “wrapped” in eight layers of botanical oils and floral waters, are designed to unfold into the skin, infusing it with nutrients as they pass from layer to layer.
Its Pentapeptide Complex acts like a supplement to collagen and elastin, providing the building blocks required to maintain a healthy skin structure for firmer, wrinkle reduced, younger-looking skin.
And don’t let your hard work go to waste –protect your skin from ultra violet light at all time. This really is the key and we like with UVA and UVB protection. A superb non greasy facial moisturiser from Skin Doctors that protects skin from the damaging effects of the sun and maximises the results of your cosmeceutical treatments.
It’s well known that what you eat reflects in your skin – eat junk consistently and your skin will over time show it. Even if you eat a reasonable diet, the nutrients in food cannot always be guaranteed, so taking a good Multi-Vitamin and Mineral supplement is good health and skin insurance. For general all round skin care from within we like a good dose of Flax Seed Oil, or chose a good ready made Organic Beauty Oil Complex to take internally every day.
With so much information around we know how easy it is to be confused so have a look at our Foods that feed your Skin and see if we can make it a bit clearer for you.
